Pattern Instructions

CO 17 STS

Knit all rows, garter stitch, until you’ve used up 1 skein of yarn.

BO in all knit stitches.

Weave in the ends.

Block, if desired.

I sewed the buttons on top, without creating buttonholes and sewed the CO & BO edges to the long edge on the opposite end, crossing them.
